Java allows unicode variable names. The Greek letter 'pi' is a valid variable name in Java (see www.jscience.org for an example). Having said that, I've had Java IDEs choke on these. An opportunity may exist here for someone to create/modify a D language IDE that supports same. [Although Descent (being Eclipse-based and therefore Java-based) should have a leg up already.] I know projects exist that intend to be 'the' D IDE (written in D, for D, etc.). Maybe this could be a discriminator that makes one stand out. Paul
